Excellent Service!

We hired garden games for our wedding reception, they looked fantastic and everybody enjoyed them, even the adults! They were a great addition to the day. Gemma was so helpful from start to finish and I would highly recommend Finickity Fayre to anyone that would ask, Thanks again Gemma!

Incredibly attentive and lots of fun!

We used finickety fayre for our wedding with their brilliant choices of afternoon tea and a really fun selection of fairground games. Gemma and her team were so flexible especially with some tricky food requirements! The games were great for guests for all ages and everything was set up perfectly for the day. Everything went smoothly and our guests were really impressed with the quality of everything provided. Pricing was also extremely reasonable. I’d happily use finickety fayre again for any significant events in the future and would recommend them to anyone looking for a fun vintage vibe for their wedding!

Added lots of fun to our day!

We held our wedding in a country pub and wanted our guests to have some fun (the young and old!) and it certainly added to our special day.

Gemma was super friendly and efficient at getting us all booked in. Set up on the day was super easy as we hardly even noticed! We just had to sign off on the final layout and we were good to go.

Lots of lovely comments from guests as to how much fun it was!

Don't hesitate as it's well worth it.

Great experience

We hired games from Finickity Fayre for our wedding. It was a great decision and our guests absolutely loved them. The communication with Gemma was brilliant. They were also very helpful with setting up and collecting games after the event so we didn’t have to worry about it. Overall great experience and I would highly recommend.

Coral & Christopher's Wedding

We first met Gemma from Finickity Fayre at an event at the Gardens, she was so welcoming and had lots of information about the services they offer, plus some games for us to try! We instantly wanted to book her for our wedding day! Communication was amazing through out, we booked a year in advance and Gemma would check in throughout this time. The day of the wedding, the games were delivered early and set up all looking amazing! Everyone enjoyed this addition to the wedding and still now talk about how amazing the games were! They are amazing quality and the choices Gemma offers are brilliant. We could not recommend this company enough, they went above and beyond for us and we are so thankful!

One of the best decisions we made

Deciding to hire fairground games on our wedding day was one of the best decisions we made! They looked amazing and were a great focus for children and adults alike, throughout the day.

Gemma turned up early in the morning of our wedding day and got on with setting up the games. We hired 4 in total, of various abilities so younger children could participate too. That being said, the adults loved them as well!

Friendly, professional and excellent value for money, if you're after a country-vibe for an outdoor wedding, we highly recommend hiring a couple of games from Finickity Fayre!

Fun for all the family!

We saw Finickity Fayre had been used by another couple on our venue's Instagram and quickly knew this is exactly what we wanted at our wedding for the family to enjoy (both old and young!).. sadly the rain decided to appear however the games held their own and everyone thoroughly enjoyed them. Gemma was super helpful and always responsive to any queries. Deposit was returned immediately following the wedding. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic games which added so much fun to our wedding day!

Great service from start to finish. Gemma arranged collection and delivery without us having to worry about a thing on our big day! The games were a fabulous addition to our wedding and were enjoyed by all the adults as well as the children! We also discovered that the tug of war rope could even double up as a giant skipping rope! We can’t speak more highly of Finickity Fayre!
